Weaving as Collage • August 25; Proof of Vaccination Required Upon Registration. Thank You!

Thursday, August 25, 6 – 9 pm

Alonzo Pantoja

Keep weaving fresh and contemporary with this beginner-level, three-hour workshop where you will develop basic weaving techniques to create your own collaged, sculptural woven artwork. The use of non-traditional handlooms and handweaving techniques will be examined, including but not limited to plain weave, twill, and embroidery. Assemble your own looms to learn what it means to construct, deconstruct, and reconstruct weavings to communicate form, balance, and meaning. Basic weaving experience a plus.

This is an in-person class, which requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination. Click here to submit your proof of vaccination. Proof of vaccination must be received 3 days (72 hours) before class, or your registration is subject to cancellation with a full refund of your payment.
